But we need also checks in the frontend for future actions to prevent doubles. Also I think a DB upgrade is not necessary. In my opinion it is for a user a small thing to fix this mistake. Especially as I can't imagine that there are so many duplicate tags in use. @DK101010 if we choose (1), we should fix it in api/java code as well as gui. IMHO DB upgrade is also required, as we need to remove the duplications in cloudstack upgrade (otherwise it needs user intervention to remove them from DB manually ). for example, we need to remove record with id=62 from below ``` mysql> select * from host_tags; +----+---------+------+ | id | host_id | tag | +----+---------+------+ | 61 | 4 | tag1 | | 62 | 4 | tag1 | +----+---------+------+ 2 rows in set (0.00 sec) ``` it is not a small change. I confirm that we can set same storage tag two times on a primary storage as well. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
